Happy Halloween

HENRY HOLLAND as Edward Scissorhands (or perhaps the mark three Beetlejuice he promised us last year), Ben Grimes as a suicidal bride and William Tempest as a ghost (complete with bleeding bullet wound to the head) - Halloween got off to a stylishly sinister start on Friday as Browns Focus hosed its third annual Halloween party, this year held in the suitably spooky surrounds of the Shepherd's Bush Pavilion.

Meanwhile, hidden off among the venue's crooks and crannies came specially curated rooms from Browns Focus designers Henry Holland, David Koma (who found one of his designs on Cheryl Cole on this weekend's The X Factor) and LP. BG - whose space consisted of a bloodied bath with a foot in it and "LP.BG done it" smeared across the mirrored wall in blood.

Of the best costumes, the duo - Lily Parker and Ben Grimes - told us: "Stick to a theme and always consider your shoes. A headpiece is appropriate for Halloween."

Noting their idea of fashion hell to be "brushed nylon", Lily Parker confessed that "Ben hates Halloween", while Ben said of Lily that Halloween is "her forte, she's a goth at heart".
